I was unaware that we had transitive coolness ranks that were generally agreed upon. I just thought everybody had their individual likes and dislikes. Of course, were someone to go on a campaign to deliberately be obtruisive and annoying they could probably manage to get on the majority of "dislike" lists.

Like barak.

But who would do such a thing?

We can't all be aware of everything. That's why I thought I'd create this handy poll.

You say the sweetest things, LJ. Unfortunately, flame wars take too much energy. It takes someone like UG to get me riled up enough to post a diatribe. And he's on my ignore list.
So, Cheyenne, got any controvertial viewpoints? I rank as libertarian leftist on politicalcompass.org, if that helps.

And he's on my ignore list.

so that explains why you didn't respond to all those insults he posted about you yesterday.

Alternatively, You could read the archives, reflect and observe...that way you don't have to try to guess the truth and then include it as poll response.
<fieldset>
<legend>Pointless Options</legend>
<form>
<label>Have you stopped beating your wife?</label>
<input type="radio" name="1">yes</input>
<input type="radio" name="1">no</input><br/>
<label>Do you walk to work, or carry your lunch?</label>
<input type="radio" name="2">yes</input>
<input type="radio" name="2">no</input><br/>
<label>If not, why not? Answer in detail:</label>
<input type="text"/><br/>
<button type="submit" value="Who cares?">Who cares?</button>
</form>
</fieldset>

I agree, that is an alternative. There are always alternatives. Reading all the archives to get an opinion of each user could be exhaustive. Though, I appreciate that suggestion.

Besides, I did include "other, write in below" as an option.

I'm sorry, MaggieL, if you took offense to this poll.

Reading all the archives would be--by definition--exhausive. Perhaps you meant "exhausting". Of course, I didn't say read all the archives. I haven't read all the posts there either, and I doubt anyone has.

When entering any new online space it's always useful to review any available archives until you gain a feel for what the space is like. Imagine what AG would have been like if every new arrival started running polls to try to guess what they could determine by observation.

Or maybe it *was* like that...

[Cheyenne]

"Perhaps you meant "exhausting". "

*waits*

AG was a different sort of board. In its day the top thread would move to the bottom very quickly. One could see the board move as if it were alive. Threads that were not posted on or bumped fell off the edge of the universe so-to-speak... it aged off. You would have to check your own "history" to see where you had been the previous day or you could spend hours looking through the quick and ever changing pages.

There were MILLIONS of users, so if someone new came along you never really knew they were new.... just "another user".

[SteveBsjb]

No need for every new user to start a fun and silly poll like this, if there is one thread started already, that we can all chat on.

And yes, I meant "exhaustive", Ms. Roget.

Why does this poll bother you so much? It's just one fun post, I don't go running into your threads to bother you or tell you how to post here. Maybe I should. Maybe you should lighten up.

So it was "like that". My sympathies.

But by "like that" I mean exactly "a feel for what the space is like". This space isn't "like that"...by all means let's keep it that way. Certainly in creating "clone posts" just so you can see your name up in lights for another 15 seconds of fame is ugly, rude, pointless and unneccessary.
